Maybe One Day


Indecisiveness

That’s my worst trait.

I can’t decide on an outfit to wear on a date

I can’t decide on what I want to eat for dinner

I don’t know what I want to be for the rest of my life.

At a time when everybody’s life is coming together,

It seems like mine is falling apart.

Is it because I’m so indecisive?

 

Happiness

That is all I want.

I should be happy

I should have a smile on my face,

But I don’t

And I’m not happy.

Is it because I’m so indecisive?

 

Optimism

The one thing I actually do have.

I believe that one day everything will be okay

I will wear a bright yellow dress to dinner

I will have steak and potatoes for dinner

I will become whatever I want to become

My life will come together,

I will be happy.

All I have to do is believe.
